I Give My Heart to Thee

1I give my heart to Thee,
O Jesus most desired;
And heart for heart the gift shall be,
For Thou my soul hast fired.

2Thou hearts alone wouldst move,
Thou only hearts dost love;
I would love Thee as Thou lovest me,
O Jesus most desired.

3What offering can I make,
Dear Lord, to love like Thine— That Thou, the Word, didst stoop to take A human form like mine?

4Thy heart is opened wide,
Its offered love most free,
That heart to heart I may abide,
And hide myself in Thee.

5Ah, how Thy love doth burn,
Till I that love return!
I would love Thee as Thou lovest me,
O Jesus most desired.
